Hi Trishfta i am also from South Africa (Kempton Park) (JHB), i am on day 8, with no weight loss and no appetite, i do eat righ, though i havent been on any exercise,(maybe that is why) the pill is not too bad, try to take it on the same time everyday, i take mine at 6am, in the morning, and i have no depression, i sleep right through the night, i did have one day though where i was depressed. but so far so good, just no weight loss, like everybody who posts. maybe by month end, as i have told myself, i will not weigh myself till then. good luck on finding the pill in durbs.

hi Trish
well my doc, did everything for me, i wonder if maybe u also have a DR PEER, that side, i think tis a family business, i wonder if there is a surgery dt side?? they not strict at all, and they do give to lots of ppl who wnts to lose weigh, please google Dr Peer's contact, and ask them if they do have a branch there by Durban,
all the Best.

I'm from SA (East Rand). Wanting to start soon, but need to wean baby (breastfeeding) and have liver tested. My biggest concern is mood-swings. I have 3 kids, aged 2,4 and 6. And I'm usually rather moody. Just worried my family will suffer if the tablets alter my mood. Going to opt for the smallest dose when I do start.

Hi,
My colleague is on Duromine (12 days now) - it suppresses her appetite very well, and she has stopped eating starches, and eats small portions (but still eats). She has lost 5kg so far! I can't wait to get started - will just have to control my temper!! I don't like jumping on the scales too often, as it demotivates me, but once I start, I think I'll weight at least every 3rd day. Good luck to you too!

Good going Sponono! I love your avatar, you are a beautiful lady! Good luck with the weight loss, it seems you are definitely on the right track!

Hi Trishfta, you should not be scared to start your Duromine. As long as you are in good health and do not have any medical conditions for which Duromine is contra-indicated you should do fine! I also had a few side effects in the beginning, but it really does get better after a few days. You will find a lot of support on this forum! We all share the same journey

Hi ladies. For those of you battling with motivation: I started my Duro in mid-June, and have lost between 8-10kg so far (my old scale is not very acurate). I have cut down drastically on consumption of carbohydrates (I'm diabetic, so this is not only for weight loss, but to improve my bloodsurgar level). I don't have time to exersice, and can honestly say that this has been pretty easy. Just stick with it!
Hubby bought me a new belt in July - and so far I have had to punch 3 extra holes... and I'm wearing jeans I have not worn since 2008!
